Oxford United: Leicester and QPR eyeing Myles Peart-Harris

The midfielder left the club upon the expiry of his contract this summer after arriving on a permanent, short-term deal from Premier League side Brentford.

Peart-Harris made 19 appearances for the U’s, bagging three goals, but ultimately suffered relegation with the club under former head coach Matt Bloomfield.

One of 10 names to depart the club for free at the end of last season, the 23-year-old is now in search of a new permanent club.

After spending time in Chelsea’s academy, the former Yellows man joined Brentford in 2021.

He enjoyed three loan spells away from the club, firstly at Forest Green Rovers before spells at Portsmouth and Swansea City.

According to Football League World, the 2002-born man is the subject of interest from the U’s League One rivals Leicester as well as QPR in the Championship.

The two clubs are both ‘on alert’ and are eyeing up moves for the former Yellow who will surely be looking to win a move as high up the football pyramid as he can.

QPR finished comfortably in 15th position in the second tier whilst the Foxes were relegated alongside Oxford, finishing the season in 23rd.
